The Newtown Telephone Company advertises that if you use their 10-10 service, you will always pay only 9c per minute, no matter where you call within the country. Its major rival, Tryus Telephone Company, charges only 3c per minute, but you must pay a 36 c "connection fee" per call. Create a cost equation for each telephone company where y is the total cost for each phone call (in cents), and x is the number of minutes the phone call lasts. Write a system of equations.

y = 9x cents

y = (36 + 3x) cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Newtown telephone company :

Fee per minute = 9c

Tyrus company :

Fee per minute = 3c

Connection fee = 36c

Cost equation :

y = total cost for each phone call:

x = minutes phone call last ;

Newton Company :

y = (fee per minute * minute phone call last)

y = 9 * x

y = 9x cents

Tyrus Company:

y = (connection fee + (fee per minute * minute phone call last))

y = (36 + (3 * x))

y = (36 + 3x) cents

it is a. 4.2 because 7.6-3.4 gets the remaining length of 4.2. i might be wrong but i am pretty sure this is the answer.
